On the outskirts of a small town in Texas, there was a big, old pecan tree just inside the cemetery fence. One day, the outstanding duo of Bunker and Slatten filled up a bucketful of nuts and sat down by the tree, out of sight, and began dividing the nuts.

"One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me," said Arch. Several nuts dropped and rolled down toward the fence. About that time, Canuckus Deploracus came riding along the road on his bicycle. As he passed, he thought he heard voices from inside the cemetery. CD slowed down to investigate. Sure enough, he heard, "One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me ...."

Canuckus just knew what it was. He jumped back on his bike and rode off. Just around the bend, he met BadBobby, hobbling along with a cane.

"Come here quickly," said Canuckus, "you won't believe what I heard! The Devil and the Lord are down at the cemetery dividing up the souls!"

BadBobby said, "Beat it, kid, can't you see it's hard for me to walk." When Canuckus insisted though, BB hobbled slowly to the cemetery.

Standing by the fence they heard, "One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me."

BadBobby whispered, "Boy, you've been tellin' me the truth. Let's see if we can see the Lord...?" Shaking with fear, they peered through the fence, yet were still unable to see anything. BB and Canuckus gripped the wrought iron bars of the fence tighter and tighter as they tried to get a glimpse of the Lord.

At last, they heard, "One for you, one for me. That's all. Now let's go get those nuts by the fence and we'll be done."

BadBobby easily beat Canuckus to the gate.

are you insinuatin that Kanuck is slow on his feet
and him bein younger than either of us
I really think Kanuck will answer your smearing depiction of himself
as for me,you never accepted my challenge to a race
even though I offered you quite a head start
as usual you prove to just talk big

CD has a good sense of humor, and probably would'a let you win anyway. As far as your challenge, a memory lapse on your part has failed the facts of your claim. Game, set, match

You're embarraskin' yourself, Popeye.

Soo--- what's wrong with the Coast Guard?
they ain't Marines?
is that it?

Not being near your age, I hadn't realized Popeye started out in The Coast Guard, before changing over to the Navy upon the advent of WWII, that's all. Normally, I have great respect for Coasties & Squids.
